Dmitri Mendeleev

Hello! Today I'm going to talk about Dmitri Mendeleev, the creator of the periodic table.
Dmitri Mendeleev was a Russian chemistry, collector and photographer. He was born in Siberia and he was the youngest of seventeen siblings. His passion with the science came from a chemistry of the glass factory that handled his family. When the glass factory was burned his family moved to Moscow, so he could go to college. But his siberian origin closed the doors in the University of Moscow and Saint Petersburg, he joined the Pedagogic Institute of Saint Petersburg. He worked as a proffesor, principal and advisor of the Minister of Finance. In Russia is considered as one of the most important person in the russian renaissance, because of his contribucion in differents field of science and the education of an entire generation of russian scientifics.
Maybe the most interesting about him was the fact that he was able to predict the discover of new elements, when he create his own version of the periodic table. He was about to received the nobel prize, but an old quarrel with one of his collegues stop this.
Thanks for reading!!

Ideal World

Hi!! Like the title of this post said, today I'm going to talk about my ideal world. It's a difficult topic because the ideal world doesn't exist, everyone has their own vision for it, but we can agree about certain topics, like rights, economics, etc. For me, an ideal world would be one where we treated with respect to our planet and every lifeform in it. I think it's okay to eat meat because we are designed to, but in the actual world where is multiples substitutes and the farm industry is responsible for a great percentage of contamination, you need to make a change and aspire to an ideal world where our diet and lifestyle doesn't depend in others animals. My vision for society is very "New Age" where the peace, love and fraternity are the bastion of this ideology. I don't know if anyone has read "Ami, el niño de las estrellas". An ideal world like this book describe, is for me an excellent example of a utopic society, where the ...

Some Reflections.

I think this is a good year to me, at this point. Enter to college was a big achieve to me and for my entire family, because I'm the first to enter. I meet a lot of wonderful people here, but I still missing my old friend and classmates. For me, the adaptation to university life wasn't a problem, even the strike and the return to classes didn't affect to me like my friends, maybe the fact of being used to be in strike helped me.  One of the subject I hate the most is calculus, I don’t know why but I never was good at math’s, I never understand what the professor explains, this year has been easier thanks to the professor I can understand the most of what explain.  Another thing I love this year was the parties, sorry but I have to say it. My old friends are always inviting me to one, and my actual friends the same or we go to the club to dance and drink something. At the end of the day I have a little time to relax from my responsibilities.  Thanks!!

Travels

This post is going to be about travels. Who don't like to travel? Usually I travel with my family every year. We travel in the south of Chile for the last two years, in ours trips we stand in one place for two or three days and we move on. I really like this two or three weeks because we see a lot of places, but there is always a disadvantage, in this case my three younger siblings, they get tired soon, so is stressfll hear them to complain the entire time we must travel. Also when we travel we can visit relatives, like my grandmother and my aunts, they live in El Carmen, a small town near Chillán, therefore this stop is obligatory for our family. I like to travel in Chile because of the type of trips that I have with my family, maybe this isn't possible if we travel outside of Chile. This year my parents are planning a trip to the north of Chile, including Perú, the other option they have is a travel to Isla de Pascua, and rent a car there. I wish they decided for Isla de Pasc...
